Chapter 1: Introduction

1.1 Background and Importance


Pet ownership is increasing worldwide, and with it comes the need for efficient
management of pet-related information. Traditional record-keeping using paper is prone to
errors, misplacement, and inefficiency. A Pet Database Management System (PDMS) helps
store and organize details of pets, their owners, medical history, and veterinary
appointments in a structured way using MySQL.

1.2 Problem Statement / Challenges


- Difficulty in retrieving pet and owner information quickly
- Risk of losing important medical and vaccination records
- Lack of centralized data for vets and owners
- Inefficient scheduling of appointments
1.3 Objectives of the System
- To design a database that stores complete information about pets, their owners, and
medical records
- To create relationships between pets, owners, and vets for efficient data retrieval
- To provide an easy way to manage appointments and medical histories

1.4 Scope of the Project


This system focuses on managing:
- Owner details
- Pet details
- Veterinary doctors
- Appointments
- Medical records

Chapter 2: System Design and Implementation

2.1 Project Flowchart


The flow of the system can be summarized as:
Owner Registration → Pet Registration → Appointment Scheduling → Medical Record Entry
→ Data Retrieval

2.2 Database Design


Database Name: pet_management

Tables:
- Owners
- Pets
- Vets
- Appointments
- Medical Records

2.3 Entity–Relationship (ER) Diagram


Entity Relationships:
- Owners have many Pets (One-to-Many)
- Pets can have many Appointments (One-to-Many)
- Pets have many Medical Records (One-to-Many)
- Appointments link Pets and Vets (Many-to-One)

2.4 Explanation of Tables


Owners Table: Stores owner information (ID, name, contact details).
Pets Table: Stores pet information (ID, name, species, breed, DOB, owner reference).
Vets Table: Stores veterinary doctors' details.
Appointments Table: Manages scheduling of pet appointments.
Medical Records Table: Tracks diagnosis, treatment, and health history of pets.

Chapter 3: Conclusion and Recommendations


The Pet Database Management System provides a reliable way of handling pet-related data.
By shifting from manual to digital records, it improves efficiency, accuracy, and accessibility.

Recommendations:
- Future improvements can include a web/mobile interface
- Integration with SMS/email reminders for vaccination dates
- Adding billing/payment modules for veterinary clinics
